MOSCOW (MRC) -- McDermott International, Inc. announced the beginning of commercial operation with Train 1 by joint owners Sempra LNG, LLC, Total, Mitsui & Co., Ltd. and Japan LNG Investment, LLC., following its substantial completion, as per Hydrocarbonprocessing.
"This is a significant milestone for the Cameron LNG project," said Mark Coscio, McDermott's Senior Vice President for North, Central and South America. "Congratulations to the McDermott project team whose steadfast commitment to outstanding project quality has been going strong since its award in 2014."
McDermott and its joint venture member on the project, Chiyoda, have been providing the engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning for the project since it began. The project includes three liquefaction trains with a projected export capacity of more than 12 million tonnes per annum of LNG, or approximately 1.7 billion cubic feet per day.
As MRC wrote previously, in early November 2018, Sempra Energy announced that Cameron LNG had initiated the commissioning process for the support facilities and first liquefaction train of Phase 1 of its Hackberry, La., liquefaction-export project. And in mid-April 2019, Sempra Energy announced that Cameron LNG had begun pipeline feed gas flow to the first liquefaction train of the liquefaction-export project as it prepares to begin production of liquefied natural gas (LNG) at the facility in Hackberry, La.
